I am so sorry to hear about your husband's diagnosis. I will be praying for both of you. I know that you will help him get through this. Life seems so unfair sometimes. First you have your history of adhesions and now this.
Who knows why this happens but be sure that I am thinking of you often and we will all be here to talk with.
